WARNING - PLEASE READ CAREFULLY

Note to Installers
This warning contains vital information. As the only individual in contact with system users, it is your responsibility to bring each item in this warn-
ing to the attention of the users of this system.

System Failures
This system has been carefully designed to be as effective as possible. There are circumstances, however, involving fire, burglary, or other types
of emergencies where it may not provide protection. Any access control system of any type may be compromised deliberately or may fail to oper-
ate as expected for a variety of reasons. Some but not all of these reasons may be:
• Inadequate Installation
An access control system must be installed properly in order to provide adequate protection. Every installation should be evaluated by a
security professional to ensure that all access points and areas are covered. Locks and latches on windows and doors must be secure and
operate as intended. Windows, doors, walls, ceilings and other building materials must be of sufficient strength and construction to provide
the level of protection expected. A reevaluation must be done during and after any construction activity.
• Criminal Knowledge
This system contains security features which were known to be effective at the time of manufacture. It is possible for persons with criminal
intent to develop techniques which reduce the effectiveness of these features. It is important that an access control system be reviewed peri-
odically to ensure that its features remain effective and that it be updated or replaced if it is found that it does not provide the protection
expected.
• Access by Intruders
Intruders may enter through an unprotected access point, circumvent a sensing device, evade detection by moving through an area of insuf-
ficient coverage, disconnect a warning device, or interfere with or prevent the proper operation of the system.
• Power Failure
Control units, readers, exit detectors and many other security devices require an adequate power supply for proper operation. If a device
operates from batteries, it is possible for the batteries to fail. Even if the batteries have not failed, they must be charged, in good condition

iv
and installed correctly. If a device operates only by AC power, any interruption, however brief, will render that device inoperative while it does
not have power. Power interruptions of any length are often accompanied by voltage fluctuations which may damage electronic equipment
such as an access control system. After a power interruption has occurred, immediately conduct a complete system test to ensure that the
system operates as intended.
• Motion Detectors - Request to Exit
Motion detectors can only detect motion within the designated areas as shown in their respective installation instructions. Motion detectors
do not provide volumetric area protection. They have multiple beams of detection and motion can only be detected in unobstructed areas
covered by these beams. They cannot detect motion which occurs behind walls, ceilings, floor, closed doors, glass partitions, glass doors or
windows. Any type of tampering whether intentional or unintentional such as masking, painting, or spraying of any material on the lenses,
mirrors, windows or any other part of the detection system will impair its proper operation. Passive infrared motion detectors operate by
sensing changes in temperature. However their effectiveness can be reduced when the ambient temperature rises near or above body tem-
perature or if there are intentional or unintentional sources of heat in or near the detection area. Some of these heat sources could be heat-
ers, radiators, stoves, barbeques, fireplaces, sunlight, steam vents, lighting and so on.
• Component Failure
Although every effort has been made to make this system as reliable as possible, the system may fail to function as intended due to the fail-
ure of a component.
• Inadequate Testing
Most problems that would prevent a system from operating as intended can be found by regular testing and maintenance. The complete sys-
tem should be tested weekly and immediately after a break-in, an attempted break-in, a fire, a storm, an earthquake, an accident, or any kind
of construction activity inside or outside the premises. The testing should include all sensing devices, keypads, consoles, alarm indicating
devices and any other operational devices that are part of the system.

Installing the KT-300


Physical Installation

Check for ideal indoor location.

Stay away from electrical or communication devices.


The KT-300 Controller cabinet has been designed to be mounted on a wall without any additional enclosures. The cabinet is
large enough to accommodate the battery backup supply and the necessary wiring connections for most applications. EMT
(Electrical Metallic Tubing) conduit knockouts are provided in 2.2 cm (7/8”) on all sides of the cabinet.
The cabinet should be mounted indoors, in a secure location providing normal temperature and humidity, leaving 23 cm (8”)
clear space around all sides and a minimum of 33 cm (13”) clear space in front of the cabinet. The location should be easily
accessible for servicing the equipment and it is recommended that controllers be located close to the controlled doors.
Controllers must be located at a minimum distance of 2 m (6 feet) from any high voltage equipment or wiring and from electrical
equipment susceptible of generating electrical interference, at a minimum distance of 1 m (3 feet) from telephone equipment or
lines, and at a minimum of 8 m (25 feet) from any transmitting equipment.
Physical access, using keys, on controlled doors must be provided so that the KT-300 can easily be accessed for servicing in
case of malfunction.

Earth Grounding
AWG#18 grounding wire to EGND.
The KT-300 uses high performance communication, proper grounding must be provided to ensure proper operation.

Make an earth ground connection to the cabinet of the KT-300 as per the requirements of your local electrical code. Wire the E-
GND terminal on the KT-300 printed circuit board directly to that connection point.

Door Locking Devices

Connect door locks to + and LK1- (+ and L2-)


Maximum 250mA @ 12 VDC per output
Check for local “magnetic lock” regulations
LK1-, LK2- and + terminals are located on the bottom left to the KT-300
terminal strip. The locking device outputs are controlled according to the
end-user programmed parameters for allowing access to or unlocking doors
according to schedules and access levels. These door locking device
outputs can operate DC powered locking devices such as
electromechanical strikes and can be configured to operate fail-safe or fail-
secure (normal or reverse action). Maximum DC current for each lock
output is 250 mA.
NOTE: Use 1K ohm EOL (End-Of-Line resistor) between + and LK- if not

Hooking Up Inputs
Connect devices to inputs 1 to 8.
Resistors (included with KT-300) for
all inputs 5.6K ohm (if selected).
The KT-300 has an on-board capability of
monitoring 8 input points (expandable to 16 if
KT-PC4108 module is used). Each input is
supervised with or without end-of-line
resistors (5.6K ohm). The maximum distance
of one line is 600m (2,000 feet) with
AWG#22.
NOTE: Inputs can be defined with: none or
one EOL (End-Of-Line) resistor
according to your EntraPass software
settings.
Inputs 1-2 are automatically reserved for the
first controlled door. The contact is assigned
input 1 and the associated request-to-exit
detector as input 2. Inputs 3 and 4 are
automatically reserved for the second
controlled door. The contact is assigned input
3 and the associated request-to-exit detector
as input 4. There is no obligation to follow
these rules but this standard convention
facilitates servicing.

Readers and Keypads


READER CONNECTION TERMINAL WARNING
Connection the red wire lead (or power lead) of a 5 VDC reader
to the 12 VDC terminal may damage the reader. See your reader
installation procedure for proper power connection.
Up to 2 readers can be connected to a KT-300. They can be
installed on one door to control both entry and exit or on two
separate doors operating independently to control one-way
access.
The distance between the readers and the KT-300 controller
varies by reader type (please consult the installation manual for
details). Auxiliary outputs provide visual and/or audible access
operation feedback at the controlled door. Outputs “OUT DOOR
1 LED & BUZ” are used for the first door and “OUT DOOR 2
LED & BUZ” are used for the second door.
The 12 VDC auxiliary power can also be used to power low
current audible devices usually located at the controlled door.

Relay Controlled Outputs


Connect controlled outputs to low voltage devices (25
mA max).
Add external relays for high voltage devices (optional
- Kantech # KT-RM1).
The KT-300 provides two controlled outputs - RL1 & RL2 (open
collector to ground-current limited to 25 mA). Use a KT-RM1 (optional) to switch larger currents or voltages or to supply a dry
contact.
When activated, relay 1 and 2 (RL1 and RL2 LED) outputs provide visual feedback of their active status, as shown in Figure X.
Can be expanded up to 16 controlled outputs when using a KT-PC4216 module. This module allows a maximum of 16 outputs
and a maximum of up to 50 mA per output. Since the KT-300 only supports 500 mA, a power supply module can be used to
provide an additional 1 A to the Combus.
NOTE: If you are using a KT-PC4204 in “repower” mode and other KT-PC4216 modules that are assigned as relays 1-16 also
connected to the same loop, do not use relay 1 of those modules or relay 1 of the KT-300 Door Controller (see the
Combus Repower section for more information).

DN1315-1010 8
KT-300 Door Controller Installation Manual

Auxiliary Outputs
Connect auxiliary outputs to readers and local warning devices.
Auxiliary outputs are used for visual and audible signals. They can be activated according to schedules, input conditions or
events and local alarms. Auxiliary outputs “OUT DOOR 1 & 2 LED” provide visual feedback of access operation, and auxiliary
outputs “OUT DOOR 1 & 2 BUZ” can activate audible warning devices, such as T-REX, to signal door alarms.

Tamper Protection
Install tamper switch on cabinet (Kantech #KT-TAMPER).
A tamper switch must be installed on the unit to detect unauthorized cabinet opening.
The normally closed tamper switch is connected to an input (choose an unused input (5 to 8) as tamper input or any other
unused inputs on the KT-PC4108 module (if used)).
NOTE: The tamper switch is required for a UL listed installation.

Connecting the KT-300


Connecting to the RS-485 Bus
Connect RS-485 cable to X1+, X1- and GND.

Controllers are linked together through their RS-485 connectors. The maximum communication loop length is 1.2 kilometers
(4,000 feet) using appropriate cabling. Connecting several KT-300 controllers at a single point is not acceptable nor are splitters
or “spider web networks.”
The RS-485 communication loop should be wired with Ethernet Category 3 double twisted pair network cable (see cable
specifications Belden 1227A, or equivalent). The RS-485 loop can operate from 1,200 to 115,200 bauds under normal
conditions.
Intermittent communication problems or erratic operation may require network speed drops to 9,600 or 19,200 Bauds. Varying
the network speed does not perceptibly change the operation speed of the system. Usually, most installations should be set to
19,200 Bauds.
NOTE: To learn more about USB-485 wiring, please refer to the USB-485 Installation Sheet, DN1482.

Powering the KT-300


Install 120 V / 16VAC, 40 VA, class 2 transformer (North Am.).
Connect 230 V / 16VAC, 100 VA, fused transformer (Eur.)

Place battery in cabinet.


Power the KT-300 controller.
The KT-300 Controller must be powered by a 16VAC/40VA class 2 wire-in or plug-in
transformer (applicable to the North American model). The KT-300 European
controller must be powered by a 16VAC/100VA fused transformer.
After you have completed all the necessary steps, you may power the KT-300
Controller. Connect AC power as well as the battery. Once powered, check the VITAL
LED status indicator to determine the status of communication and other vital
parameters. Consult the troubleshooting section for VITAL LED behavior
identification.
If the AC supply is removed, the 12 Volt 7 A/h led-type backup battery will support
normal operation for up to 12 hours if fully charged. Internal battery verification will
cutoff battery power if the battery voltage level falls below 9.5 Volts.
NOTE: The KT-300 Controller will not start on battery alone.
NOTE: Power should only be applied to the unit when all connections are completed
and tested.

Installing Combus Modules


Introduction to Combus Modules
The Combus terminals on the KT-300 Controller are used to connect expansion modules to add inputs, outputs, relays and LCD
time and date display. The four Combus terminals of the main panel must be connected to the four Combus terminals or wires
of all modules.
Four expansion modules can be connected to KT-300’s Combus (more specifications on each of these modules can be found
later on in this document.):
• KT-PC4108 - 8-Zone input expansion module
• KT-PC4204 - 4-Relay/Power supply expansion module
• KT-PC4216 - 16-Zone output expansion module
• KT3-LCD - Kantech LCD keypad module
Combus Specifications
The Combus provides 500 mA at 12 Volts (13.85 VDC). The recommended cable is
#22 AWG. Each loop (module to KT-300) cannot exceed 300 m (1,000 feet) and the
total maximum cable length of all connected loops cannot exceed 1,200 m (4,000
feet).
For example:
• Only four wireruns at 1,000 feet from the KT-300.
• Only eight wireruns at 500 feet from the KT-300.
• Only ten wireruns at 400 feet from the KT-300
Shielded wire should only be used in areas with excessive RF noise of
electromagnetic interference. Modules can be straight run, connected in a daisy
chain or T-tapped anywhere on the Combus.
Keep in mind that the new modules must be defined in the EntraPass system when
they are added to the Combus. Refer to the Controller Definition section in the EntraPass Reference Manual to learn how to
assign modules to your system.

DN1315-1010 11
KT-300 Door Controller Installation Manual

Combus Repower (If Required)


Depending on how many modules are connected to the Combus
and how far they are from the KT-300 controller, you may need to
“repower” the controller’s Combus.
The Combus needs to be “repowered” if the voltage drops below
12.5 Volts between black and red wires of the last module of each
loop (the modules will still operate but there will be no
communication between the modules and the controller and a
“Combus module defect” event will be generated from the
controller). This voltage drops if modules are drawing too much
current (500mA maximum for the Combus of each KT-300).
Verify this voltage with a multi meter, and determine if you need to
install a KT-PC4204 in “repower” mode. Using this configuration, you
will be provided with an additional 1 amp of current on the
controller’s Combus. The KT-PC4204 is generally installed at the
beginning of the loop.
When using the KT-PC4204 in “repower” mode, the first relay of the
module will be reserved for the “repower function”. You will have to
assign an “all valid” schedule to the first relay so it is “always
activated” (refer to the Controller definition section of your EntraPass
User Reference Manual for the exact procedure.)
If you are using a KT-PC4204 in “repower” mode and other KT-
PC4204 modules that are assigned as relays 1-4 or KT-PC4216
modules that are assigned as relays 1-16 are also connected to the
same loop, do not use relay 1 of those modules or relay 1 of the KT-
300 door controller. Please also note that all KT-PC4204 modules
that are used for Combus repower should be assigned as relays 1-4.
NOTE: Jumper 1 “J1” on the KT-PC4204 must be moved to the
Combus relay position.
NOTE: Do not use any power supply other than the KT-PC4204 to repower the Combus. In the event of a power surge or
transient, a module may lock up and cease to communicate with the controller. If the KT-300 loses communication with
the module, it will initiate a module reset and will power down the Combus for five seconds in an attempt to reset the
problem module. After five seconds, the controller will reapply power to the Combus and the problem module should
begin to operate as intended.

Visual Status Indicators (LEDs)


The KT-300 controller has multiple status indicators such as for troubleshooting, network activity, power status and outputs
activity. Please refer to the graphic below for a detailed view of their location.
• HEARTBEAT (BLUE): This LED indicates the working status of KT-300.
• RS-485 (YELLOW): The RS-485 port LEDs are transmit/receive activity indicators.
• RS-232 (YELLOW): The RS-232 LEDs are ON when communicating to the EntraPass gateway or to the
dial-up modem.
• COMBUS RX and TX (YELLOW): These LEDs are transmit/receive activity indicators. Only very small
packets will be sent/transmitted upon module activity.
• LOCK1, LOCK2 (RED): This LED turns ON when the lock output is activated.
• RELAY1, RELAY2 (RED): Each relay output has an indicator which turns ON each time the corresponding
relay is activated.
• AC POWER (GREEN): This LED is on when AC power is present.

KT-300 Controller Maintenance Recommendations


The KT-300 circuit board includes a lithium battery (see the KT-300 Controller Wiring Diagram on page 20). This battery must
be replaced by a Kantech technician to avoid any risk of explosion. If the lithium battery stops working, return the circuit board to
Kantech. Do not crush, puncture, open, disassemble or otherwise mechanically interfere with the battery. Do not try to recharge
the battery. If you need to dispose of the circuit board and/or the lithium battery, wrap the KT-300 in non-conductive tape. Check
with your local authorities for battery disposal regulations.
WARNING: Do not store the batteries in such a way that they come into contact with each other or with any piece
of metal. Explosion or fire may occur. Should fire occur, use only dry chemical fire extinguishers. Do
not use water to put out the fire. Do not heat the batteries. Do not dispose of the batteries or circuit
board in a fire. Do not disassemble the batteries. Do not apply pressure to or deform the batteries.
Ensure that the above precautions are strictly observed by related departments, including, but not
limited to, production, sales and outside contractors.
Regarding the recommended battery 7 A/12 V: It is the end-user and/or installer responsibility to assure that the disposal of
used batteries is made according to the waste recovery and recycling regulations currently applicable in their area. Use the
recommended battery type ONLY.
It is highly recommended to test the KT-300 Controller by performing the following tests:
1) Bi-annual test for battery:
Remove AC power from the controller and connect the battery to the controller for one hour. This test will ensure that in the
event of a power failure, the battery will be able to support normal operations. This test should be performed twice a year. Once
the test has been performed successfully, reconnect AC power to the controller.
2) Annual test for emergency lithium battery:
Measure voltage of lithium battery when power is totally removed from the controller (AC & DC power). To ensure maximum
operation and prevent loss of power, contact your distributor to return the KT-300 for maintenance if the lithium battery voltage
measures below 2.5 VDC.
